NZD/GBP Transfer

The English Pound (GBP) extended its run over the New Zealand Dollar (NZD) through midweek to 2.1840 (0.4580) was unable to hold this level. Comments by chancellor Reeves translated into rates staying higher for longer helping to buoy the Pound. The GBP declined sharply following the UK budget starting a selloff in UK bonds post the announcement of big tax rises on the horizon. The cross shifted from 0.4610 (2.1700) to trade back at 0.4635 (2.1570) early Friday. Next week’s NZ Jobs data and more importantly the Bank of England (BoE) Cash Rate shouldn’t disappoint.

NZD/USD Transfer

Consensus for a 75-point rate cut at this months RBNZ meeting is gathering pace with a dovish economic outlook undermining policy. The New Zealand Dollar (NZD) has been choppy over the week against the US Dollar (USD), the US presidential election keeping a risk off tone, the kiwi reaching a low of 0.5940 before bouncing back into early Friday to 0.5970 levels. ADP jobless claims came in slightly ahead of forecast at 233,000 compared to 113,000 estimates with attention now to Non-Farm Payroll releasing tonight. Anything hot and we could see a shift in policy by the Fed and a lift in the greenback.

NZD/AUD Transfer

The New Zealand Dollar (NZD), Australian Dollar (AUD) ticked higher over the week from 0.9050 (1.1050) to reach 0.9120 (1.0965) midweek before the kiwi gave back gains into Friday to 0.9075 (1.1020). Australian CPI y/y came in at 2.8% dropping a whopping 1% from 3.8%, the lowest reading since Q1 2021 with declines mainly in electricity and fuel prices. Aussie Retail Sales came in light at 0.1% compared to 0.3% dropping the AUD marginally. Next week’s RBA cash rate should bring a “hold” at 4.35% and not really create any fanfare. The release could we be overshadowed by Melbourne Cup and US Presidential Elections. One would expect if anything, the AUD could retest 0.9010 (1.1100) over the coming days.

EURO/AUD Transfer

Hawkish comments from the ECB have buoyed the Euro (EUR) higher Monday against the Australian Dollar (AUD) pushing to 1.6500 (0.6060) a fresh 7 week high in the cross as it extends off last week’s 1.6140 (0.6200). ECB’s Wunsch said he had no urgency to cut rates, while a 50-point cut at the December meeting looks the ticket pending incoming data.

GBP/AUD Transfer

The Australian Dollar (AUD) is setting up for the lowest weekly close against the British Pound (GBP) since August 2023 with price continuing to slip to 0.5040 (1.9840). Less than impressive UK Manufacturing and a slide in the Lloyds business barometer haven’t had much impact with overpowering sentiment towards risk off, a lot of this stemming from the upcoming US elections. Today’s Aussie CPI y/y should highlight drops in many consumer products with expectations the figure should fall to 2.9% from June quarters 3.8%. The Aussie may continue to weaken towards next week’s RBA.
